Well I have some faith in thsi game. But I won't give it a theral review until I finished the game. The game defeantly has the tomb raider feel. More or so the LAst Revalation. However, many may disagree for this having the Tomb Raider Feel...I do not. The Games story is still not completely revealed yetbut basically it has somehting to do with these paintings. Can't give a positive attitude about it. Now I must say. Teh controls...in my opinion are fine...Do to the fact I have a controler XD.(Although when turning to the left while running is apain cause my controler is a bit....weird) The Bugs and such are weird....might as well post this weird pic. that just happened.  I'll finish this review once I get further in the game. |

Apparently I'm past Chibi, and I've lost all faith in the game. A buggy mess that is a far shot from the first two games. The only thing going for it is that fact that it attempts to create a more adventure-y type atmosphere for the game (instead of levels after levels, you walk around to the levels yourself), although this is no more than a glorified hub.
I don't have a clue what's happening in the above screenshot, though.

You know ChibiGoku, not everyone knows that TR: AOD stands for Tomb Raider: Angel of Darkness. This isn't a review, you haven't even finished the game, you didn't comment on the graphics, sound, and barely anything else. We do not care about your broken controller, and this is a pointless thread, it doesn't help us with anything, only now we know you have a broken controller, and maybe got the hint that the control in AOD isn't good aswell. So what? Why did you write a thread in the review forum for that? Read the rules ChibiGoku. Think before you post, this is a total waste of time.

Okay, for people who are interested in it, here's my summary so far (I'm further into the game than Chibi):
- Fairly good graphics;
- Good adventure influences;
- Lack of originality;
- Where are the traditional two pistols? There's only one!
- The old control system is updated..
- ..for the worst: it does not work;
- Game Over is a likely occurence..
- ..although I've never had one from being killed by an enemy;
- Good title screen music, the rest forgettable;
- Overall, a bit of a disappointment, check out other games first.
That should be a tad more helpful, now let Chibi get on with his review.

I never liked tomb raider period. It was boring and always will be. Yes, I agree. You seem to die more from environmental dangers than from enemies. It's kind of sad actually...

That's true, but there's twice as much annoying falling to your death in this outing  . Just goes to reinforce my theory that most new games are too much about graphics and a polished presentation to actually care whether it's fun or not. |

I never liked Tomb Raider... Maybe for the trailers than I saw, this is the best Tomb Raider. And the game is done ;D! I will buy it, if I like it!!!

It's basically just another bog-standard Tomb Raider game, so if you didn't like the others, I wouldn't recommend it. I think I enjoyed the earlier games more . |

That's another thing which is poor about the game: the exits are nearly always impossible to find. The only way of knowing roughly where an exit is is by knowing that the game's progression is extremely linear.
There will be an exit, I think it's near the control box where you control the ceiling lights. You've probably gone back to the start of the level, where for some reason the door that you came in with no longer functions, due to nothing that is explained.
